Eric Harrison was born in San Antonio, Texas and studied art under his father, Robert Harrison. He enjoys painting the many memorable themes of Texas; big oaks and spring flowers, longhorns, cacti, and rivers to name a favorite few.

Many of his landscapes are painted on location, in plein aire, and all are the result of a love of the subject painted and the joy of painting it. Eric's works may be seen at the University of Texas at San Antonio where his paintings are displayed in UTSA President Dr. Ricardo Romo's office and at the Buckhorn Museum of San Antonio. In January 2009 Eric's work will be featured at the Witte Museum in San Antonio for the annual Kiwanis Club Western art fundraiser.
